Great. That's what I wanted to know. That would be a nice fabric for
1880s and 1920s, when some Renaissance-inspired fabrics were used.
I refrained from listing links I found to some linen velvets because
they were all sofa weight. Has anyone ever seen a linen velvet woven for
clothing?

I've handled that fabric. It's medium-ish, not super heavy. I don't think it
was meant for, say, drapes, at least not without a backing.

I'm quite taken with the olive green embossed velveteen. Anyone know how
heavy it is?

Of course, colors are limited, but if you want something specific, send owner
Diana an email, she might be able to find it for you.
